Every step happens in Ejutla La Noria: Espadín agave matured seven years is roasted for 60 hours in a traditional earthen horno over huamuchil wood, rested, then crushed by a bull-pulled stone tahona wheel. The agave ferments for eight to ten days in wooden vats surrounded by tropical fruit trees endemic to Ejutla, whose yeast and pollen add nuance to the fermentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe profile is green and vegetal, with balanced smoke, earth, subtle spice and a dry, mineral finish, versatile enough for sipping or mixing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRefined, approachable and super smooth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMezcal is made by roasting agave hearts, traditionally in earthen pits, then crushing, fermenting and distilling them, a process that gives the spirit its characteristic smoky depth. Each agave variety and each village brings its own character, which is why enthusiasts love exploring small-batch bottlings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMezcal and other agave spirits are traditionally sipped from a copita or a small clay cup, in small sips, often alongside orange slices dusted with sal de gusano. Many are made in tiny batches by individual families, so each bottle is a snapshot of a particular place, agave and season.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Green agave, vegetal notes, smoke.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Earth, subtle spice, mineral.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dry and clean.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Producer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaestro mezcalero:\u003c\/strong\u003e Juan Pacheco Santos\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ejutla La Noria, Oaxaca\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAgave:\u003c\/strong\u003e Espadín, matured 7 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProcess:\u003c\/strong\u003e 60-hour earthen-oven roast, tahona crushed, wooden-vat fermentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNOM:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0685X\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 88 proof (44% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eShake it into an Abrazo de Amigos with a mint garnish, a mezcal Margarita or a Paloma, or sip it neat with orange slices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho makes it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaestro mezcalero Juan Pacheco Santos in Ejutla La Noria, Oaxaca.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is it made?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSeven-year Espadín roasted 60 hours in an earthen oven, crushed by tahona and fermented in wooden vats.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat proof is it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e88 proof (44% ABV).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplore more in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/mezcal\"\u003eMezcal collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Producer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68029485908277,"sku":"VWS200434546","price":36.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/7367\/8901\/files\/noir-gold-main-27202.webp?v=1793730066","url":"https:\/\/hiddencasks.com\/products\/the-producer-mezcal-espadin-joven-750ml","provider":"Hidden Casks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
